Is just really just like two dudes, 27 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: usually with Kurt's here at three, just hanging out talking 28 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: about football, just talking about what you would talk, how 29 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: you would talk with your friends. Honestly, this is how 30 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: we talk when the cameras aren't on, when we're not 31 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: on the air. We go to lunch, we go to 32 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: dinner together, and we just sit around and talk. We 33 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: talk about what's going on on the field, we talk 34 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: about what's happening off the field, what they used to 35 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: do when he played. Yeah, basically we wanted this show 36 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: to be that way. So we we don't really prepare 37 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:10,959 Speaker 1: for this thing because we just wanted to kind of 38 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: be like now, sometimes we'll go, hey, let's have Nick on, 39 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 1: let's have brought us on talking about the injuries.

I don't know, 44 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: let's just go with it. So so we were going 45 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: with it, and it was like, we gotta get somebody 46 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: on to talk about injuries.

Yeah, nine seven two four nine 50 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: seven forty four zero zero. We'll be taking calls because 51 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: last year we didn't. We was new, we wanted to 52 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: get to know each other. But this year here, you know, 53 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: we figured that between Broadest, Mickey and somebody guests. You know, 54 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: you have a lot of information. You know, go to 55 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: Dallas Dallas Cowboys dot com. Yep, we got writers, we 56 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: got Shannon has a new Webb site. You want to 57 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: tell them about your new page you got up. Yeah, 58 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,959 Speaker 1: so we if you I'm sure most of you've noticed, 59 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: uh we revamped uh Dallas Cowboys dot com. All the 60 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: all the NFL teams are now on the same platform, 61 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: so it's kind of uniform. If you go to one 62 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: one team site, it kind of translates to the other 63 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: team sites. They're still working through some bugs. There's no 64 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: way to download. I know a lot of people voiced 65 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: concerned of I'm not able to download just the audio anymore. 66 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: You have to go to iTunes or or tune in 67 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: radio to uh the tune in app to do that. 68 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: So we're working through some things. But for the most part, man, 69 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: it looks a lot better, it functions a lot better. 70 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: It's uh, there's no search functionality, so we're working on that. 71 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: So a little a couple of little bumps, some bruises 72 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: along the way, but we're working through it, and I 73 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: think for the most part, it's a it's a better 74 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: looking site. It's a lot cleaner. So what what the 75 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: Cowboys is Jones's goal? Uh, Derek Eagles and out boss 76 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: what we know? What our goal is? You know, all 77 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: of us, shann On, myself, Night and Kurt when he's here. 78 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: Is we trying to give you all the information, the 79 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: correct information about the Dallas Cowboys and the other thirty 80 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: one members, and then you can make logical conclusions of 81 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: reasons or deductions or however you want to do. Whatever 82 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 1: your keyword to get your mind going. You know, you 83 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: can make you can make a logical Yeah. And you 84 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: know what, I was talking to Derek about this the 85 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: other day, because before I came to work for the team, 86 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: or before I was over on the media side, you 87 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: always think, you know, usually you go to national media 88 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: for your news. You go to like your ESPNS, your 89 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: you know, your networks and things like that, the NFL network. 90 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: And one thing that I've realized working here for the 91 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: team is that's great. And they have their they have 92 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: their contacts in the organization and their people and stuff. 93 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: But there's nobody that's closer to this team than this 94 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: staffy Mickey has conversations with the man himself, Jerry, all 95 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: the time. Jerry tells him, Steven tells him stuff that 96 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: they don't tell other people brought us, you know, breaks 97 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: down on the film that you know, he's able to 98 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: watch the film that the coach is watching the scouts. 99 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: There's nobody that knows this team like this staff. You 100 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: know what's amazing is I started watching a film that 101 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: brought us maybe three or four years ago, as they 102 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: down as mister Robert Blackwell downloads it because they download 103 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: on the national base, for the other thirty one, for 104 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: the other thirty one teams, and for the commissioner because 105 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,559 Speaker 1: after every practice, so they have a group of people 106 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: that views every practice and make sure they stay within 107 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: the rules. Broadest has this maybe no less than an hour. 108 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: The most I've seen it take was an hour. But 109 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: as things come off the field seven on seven, one 110 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: on one, pass rush, one on one, DBS versus receivers, 111 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: it goes straight to Broadest, and all he gotta do 112 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: is just wait there, man. He and he and he stops, 113 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: and he begins to break down, like maybe forty minutes 114 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: out of practice. He come, turns computer, just get to work. 115 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: You know, we used to watch it with him, but 116 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: it's so intense now for him to get his UH 117 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: notes and news out to you people. So he moved 118 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: us to the next day at ten o'clock because he 119 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: wanted to be able to get all that information out 120 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: firsthand to our listeners and to you know, our viewers. Yeah, 121 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: and people don't realize that, like out of all thirty 122 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: two NFL teams, it's US and maybe one maybe two 123 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: other teams that cover that are their organizations let them 124 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: cover them like a legit news outline. Yes, we're able 125 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: to have opinions on the team. We're able to have 126 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: opinions on the coaching decisions. We're able to have an 127 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,799 Speaker 1: opinion on what ownership does. A lot of other teams, 128 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: in fact, most all of the teams, especially in other leagues, 129 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: they they're more of a you know, kind of a 130 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: mouthpiece for the organization. They won't they won't openly they're 131 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: not able to openly criticize or give opinions and things 132 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: like that. And from the beginning when when Derek started 133 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: kind of the internet and the web department along with 134 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: with Jerry, je was junior. They wanted to compete with 135 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: your ESPNS and your Dallas Morning news is and they 136 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: were like, Hey, if we're gonna get in this market, 137 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: we gotta be we gotta be objective. We can't be subjective. 138 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: So they the family's been great as far as hey 139 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: report the news. We're gonna compete with these guys. Report 140 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: the news like it is and and a lot of 141 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: times we'll have a story. You know that that because 142 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: we are the organization, just because we're not first with it, 143 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: doesn't mean we didn't have it. Yeah, if you see 144 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: it on the national news odds are we've had it, 145 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: We've known about it. We just had to whitehead the 146 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: Lucky Whiteheads decision. And Mick knew it right. And when 147 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: I first heard the rumors that Hey was gonna, you know, 148 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: release Lucky, Mickey like he literally sat out and told 149 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: me like, hey, this is the this is the situation. Yeah, 150 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: And but until it happened, that's the drawbacks, you know, 151 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: having all the infantile information I have having a person. 152 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: It's to the point now, well a lot of times 153 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: I won't even ask Mickey about what's happening. Hey, Hey, 154 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: I saw you talking to Stephen Jones. What's happening. I 155 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: stopped doing that because that's a conflict of venture. That 156 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: means I can't come to you as viewers and get 157 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, like, Hey, that dude, they 158 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: ain't no good I dude won't be here right, you know. 159 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: You know, so it's a it's a tricky thing, but 160 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: they do allow us. I have said things like you 161 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: have never heard like what happened to Chad's mareen last 162 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: year at Atlanta?

She does a lot for him 222 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: and help him with the new website and connecting all 223 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: thirty two teams. So then you're at the spot. I 224 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 1: mean you're at the spot and maybe we'll get into 225 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: some football here in a minute. Quit uh quit two 226 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: now on horn. We need to get we need to 227 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: get Price on the show. Yeah, really man, because that 228 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: show and I'm asking, how do you feel to be 229 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: the first guy to ever beat our center? Even as 230 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: a rookie. He didn't get beat twice in a row. 231 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: You know, it may have been a fifty to fifty 232 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: tile or great because you either win out right, are 233 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: you as a good great battle and you you can 234 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: whoever you are, whoever picking it can go either way. 235 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: But he got him twice. We speaking of having people 236 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: on the show, Jeff heath is gonna stop by, hopefully, 237 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 1: he said he would on his way out to practice, 238 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: which will probably be close to the end of the show. 239 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: I would imagine around thirty minutes from now he'll he'll 240 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: stop by. So got that to look forward to. What 241 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: uh have you seen anything from him before he gets 242 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: on the show? Have you seen Jeff heath Man? I 243 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: have seen him, and I'm gonna I'm gonna pose the 244 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: question him. He has been up in that line. That's 245 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: something I need to talk to broad Us about. He 246 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: has been up in the line as the eighth defender 247 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: playing up in the box. Yeah, in the box? I 248 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: mean I didn't. I didn't. I don't remember seeing him 249 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: a lot in the box. Last year was it Jones 250 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: or is it something new that we're doing where especially 251 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: against team Blitz, he up in the box. And then 252 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: when we have a team inside run, he's up in 253 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:16,719 Speaker 1: the box. So and he's reacting real well, he's amidst 254 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: all of this, Earl Thomas, and we need another safety. 255 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: And this is the amazing thing is this kid ain't flinched. 256 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,719 Speaker 1: And I guess coming from special teams working your way 257 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: into what into your position, you've done nothing to tell 258 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: to show the coaches that this guy can't do the job. 259 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: Last year, towards the end of the season, you know 260 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 1: that he started rotating the secondary. Everybody moved around, and 261 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: guys came out the field. Even our first round picking, 262 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: Jones loved him to death, but even he came out 263 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: the field. But the one constant was Jeff Heaton. He 264 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: stayed on the field. Yep. I think he led the 265 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: team with two picks a three picks last year and 266 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: the year before. He made this dude make plays. He 267 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: make plays. And I'm gonna say this, Let's say we 268 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: do get a guy like like Earl Thomas or some 269 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 1: other guy. You know, I'm not I'm not into the 270 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: fantasy league football. What else because I believe in dinnim 271 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: with what you have in camp. But he still may 272 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: not be the guy to come off the field. Yeah, 273 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: he still may not be the safety that Okay, now 274 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: that now that this guy is here, we don't need 275 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: Jeff Heath. He still may not be that guy, you know, 276 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: And that's what I try to tell people that you know, 277 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: we're a great what if organization, But one thing Coach 278 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: Garrett has tried to instill in his players. We basically 279 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: have scoured every situation up until this point. And you 280 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: are the ninety plus guys that we're take in the camp. 281 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: So we're gonna that's how we're gonna plan our practices. 282 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: It's the scouts of y'all, Will McClay u and missus 283 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: Steven Jones to go out and scour right now, every 284 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: coach position, coach, head coach Stephen's a coordinator of its coordinator. 285 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 1: If they're thinking of something else, they're doing a disservice 286 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: to this team and a disservice to their players. It's 287 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: all as forward to this field every day. Yeah, when 288 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: do you start. That's a good, good thing you brought 289 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: a good question you brought up, or a good point. 290 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: But now that the way they do cuts, they cut 291 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: everybody at once, right before that final preseason game. Know, 292 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: it ain't no cons to that, that's all pro. I 293 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: love that, Yeah, I love that. When do they when 294 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: do so? When no one those guys are going to 295 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: hit the street, right, you know that every team's cutting, 296 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: you know, forty thirty forty guys September first, and you 297 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: get to go, you know you're doing The scouts are 298 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: all they've been working up to that point. That's their year, 299 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: that's their right. Yeah, So at what point do you 300 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: shift your focus a little bit too? All Right? Now 301 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: we gotta go clean up these free agents and get 302 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: the ones that we want. They already the scouts right, Yeah, 303 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: we know Will McClay.

You always got to play apart for injuries. 305 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: You always got to play a part to a guy 306 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: that you would have drafted, a guy that you would 307 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: have signed. Is he better than that guy that's at 308 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: fifty three, fifty two or fifty one? And he's there 309 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: because the scouts got it written.

He over college? He's over college and 336 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: setting up the uh this deal. So we'll ask them 337 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: when he comes. Yeah. We were talking to one of 338 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: the scouts, one of the college guys the other day, 339 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: and he was saying that that each college scout takes 340 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 1: two pro teams during this period to help out because 341 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 1: there's just so many players they're looking at. They'll grab 342 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 1: two pro teams and start scouting them. They do hit 343 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 1: the market, they've they've got a little bit. They got 344 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: a little bit and see it in all all comes 345 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: down to two things, where you lacking at and the injuries, 346 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: you know, because if the injuries, that can decimate you 347 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: quicker than anything you know, and and and and then 348 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: if you think that, oh man, you know, we we 349 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: thought it was good at linebacker with out three guys, 350 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: but we need one more off we needed to play 351 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: special teams. We need a linebacker. They may be specific 352 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: in what they wanted, how they look at it, so 353 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: they'll go out and then scour that, you know. Or 354 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: if the wide receivers not panning out, and they thought like, wow, 355 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: we really thought this guy was gonna be okay, this guy, 356 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: but he then is as smart as we thought he 357 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: was a lot, a lot. Then you know you're lacking there. 358 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,199 Speaker 1: So you is it a veteran out there that we 359 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: can bring in. It can make a difference. So if 360 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 1: a lack that you didn't foresee or injury can can 361 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: can can make you go out there and scour it 362 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 1: real hard.

That's 683 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: what I like about today's You know, you don't get advantage. 684 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 1: You don't get to have five or six extra practices 685 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: you unless you have a new coach. You know, you 686 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: get an extra miny camp or something. But you you. 687 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: Everybody's on the same pay, same rules. Saying now, I 688 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: wish they would hear a little bit more doing training 689 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: camp to get these young guys and get the veterans 690 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: in better shapes. If we can start with all the 691 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: hamstrain pulls or either shortened that five week period. That's 692 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: too long for guys that are coming out here and 693 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: be extra run and explode all over the field. But 694 00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: you know, what we did was not as hard is 695 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: what they did in the sixties. Out of the seventies. 696 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 1: In the seventies, these have six weeks, six to eight weeks. 697 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: The rookies would be here a whole month before the 698 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: veterans came. Wow, and can you imagine that's when they 699 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: had almost two hundred players. Two hundred players, man, I 700 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 1: can't imagine being out here a whole month longer, much 701 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: less if I'm out there grinding every day getting fifteen 702 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: dollars a week. Jeez. So what did you do?

M learned a 759 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,760 Speaker 1: lot on the fly, you know, learned a lot through experience. 760 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 1: I would say mostly on field experience good and bad. 761 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 1: And I think really my mentality for my entire career, 762 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 1: it's kind of you know, whether it's a good experience 763 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,800 Speaker 1: or bad experience, treat him the same way, learn from them, 764 00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 1: and you know, figure out how how that can helped 765 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,879 Speaker 1: my game in the long run. And then uh really yeah, 766 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 1: as the years gone, I'm just got more and more comfortable. 767 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,479 Speaker 1: And D two school, yep, D two talk too?

You played other positions, 770 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: but I played uh well in college. I was a 771 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 1: dB only high school. I did a little bit of everything. Uh, dB, receiver, kicker, partner. Yeah, 772 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: we saw you kicking skills, man, you were a pretty 773 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: solid YEP. I was a soccer player. Uh. Soccer is 774 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: actually my first sport. I started playing soccer and I 775 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: was about four years old. I played soccer really all 776 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: the way up until my senior in high school. Um, 777 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: and then you know, time camera, I had to side 778 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: whether to play soccer in college or football in college. 779 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, football was always my true love. 780 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: But uh, soccer, but you better. Uh. I wouldn't say 781 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: I was better. I was just um I was. I 782 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 1: was more recruited for I think I was. You know, 783 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 1: the team I was playing on, we would travel all 784 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: over the place. We would go all these showcase tournaments. 785 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: So uh, you know, I was really out there, um 786 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 1: in terms of soccer. But I've always loved football. You know, 787 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 1: Dad played, Grandpa played. Dad coaches, so um pretty much, 788 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: I just said, you know, if I could get any 789 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 1: opportunity to play football in college, I was gonna take it. Yeah, 790 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 1: who recruited you for soccer? Uh? You know there's a 791 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 1: lot of uh so, a lot of the Michigan schools, 792 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 1: Oakland University, University of Michigan, UM, some of the team 793 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 1: University University of Chicago, a lot of Midwest teams, East 794 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 1: Coast teams. But you know, really before my senior year, 795 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: I had already decided, you know, football was gonna be 796 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: my sport. I was done with soccer, so, uh, you know, 797 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: who knows what would have happened. Man, Luckily, I think 798 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: I made the right choice. People ask me all the time, 799 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,840 Speaker 1: like who's the most athletic guy on the team, and 800 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: I was like, believe it or not. I was like, 801 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put Jeff Heath in the conversation just because 802 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,399 Speaker 1: like soccer football. Hell, you got out there, you kicked 803 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 1: a pro in a pro How was that we hadn't 804 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: talked to you since then? Was that crazy? I was insane? Man, Um, 805 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: that was a lot of fun, you know, I was 806 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: actually Uh, I think it was good that I didn't 807 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:14,800 Speaker 1: have much time to kind of think about it, you know, 808 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: I kind of I was told right before and I 809 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: was a little nervous at first, and then um, you know, 810 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: I pretty much just told myself like I'm not the kicker. 811 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: No one expects me to get, no one expect me 812 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: to make it, So I'm just gonna go have fun 813 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: with it. And uh, um, you know, luckily, I think 814 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: we were up a lot in the game at that point, 815 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: so that made it probably a little bit easier. But 816 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: it's just had a lot of fun, you know, all 817 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 1: the all my teammates, coaches. It was just h it 818 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: was really fun to What was a cooler moment for you, 819 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,879 Speaker 1: kicking in a pro game or the Oakland game where 820 00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,879 Speaker 1: you saved the touchdown and had to hear Cavan call 821 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: you the goat the rest of the night. You know 822 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 1: what I think? Uh, I think the Oakland game, Um 823 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 1: was cooler for me only because, uh the implications of 824 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: that game. You know, we needed to win to keep 825 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 1: our season alive, and um, you know that a game 826 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 1: like that, you do you know that's for guys like wet, 827 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: guys like Sean, you know, guys who have invested so 828 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 1: much into the Cowboys for so long and you know, 829 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 1: you know, just wins. The guy who really comes to 830 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,359 Speaker 1: mind when I think about that game, you know, thinking 831 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: about how excited he was after the game, and you 832 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 1: know he's in his fifteenth season, and uh, if we 833 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 1: lose that game, we're done. Um, so you know we win, 834 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: h we had the ability to you know, try to 835 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,319 Speaker 1: win out and make the playoffs. UM, that was just 836 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: a really cool moment for really everybody. Hey man, you 837 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 1: you you you came up the hard way specialty tipping 838 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,479 Speaker 1: about that. How you felt man, each graduation man, each 839 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,879 Speaker 1: each move man talked through that. Well, yeah, I knew. 840 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,400 Speaker 1: Uh so you know, coming in I was I was 841 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: not naive. You know, I was an undrafted player. I 842 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,839 Speaker 1: knew that. Um, if I had any chance of making 843 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 1: the team, not only was I gonna need some breaks, 844 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 1: I was gonna need a little bit of luck. I 845 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: was gonna a lot of things had to go my way. 846 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 1: But you know I had to control what I could control, 847 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: and that was, um when I was on the field 848 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,359 Speaker 1: and all the kicking game stuff, just you know, playing 849 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: my butt off and trying to stand out as much 850 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:06,800 Speaker 1: as I could then and uh, you know that was 851 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 1: kind of my world for well, actually, you know, my 852 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: rookie year actually had to UM. I ended up playing 853 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 1: a lot of safety that year. He had some injuries. 854 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 1: But you know, the next couple of years, my world 855 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,879 Speaker 1: was really uh special teams, trying to be the best player. 856 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 1: I could, you know, a little spot duty at safety 857 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 1: certain you know, dying packages and stuff like that. But um, 858 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: you know, I think really my mentality is, uh, whether 859 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 1: it's on kickoff team, punt team, or at safety, at dying, 860 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: whatever I'm doing, I just try to you know, do 861 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: my job, and uh, if the opportunity sent itself to 862 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 1: make a play, I just try to capitalize. Just a 863 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 1: question I have to ask you, man, because I've been 864 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 1: I watched team blitz and I'll watch inside a team 865 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 1: run and and and I didn't notice last year. And 866 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 1: maybe it's just bad on my part, But you're end 867 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,359 Speaker 1: the I see you in the line a little more. 868 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 1: Is that Is that me missing something? Or is that 869 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: true that you're up on the line a little bit? Think? Yeah, Well, 870 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 1: so far in camp this year, I've been up a 871 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 1: little bit more. Um, you know, just with the personnel 872 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 1: we have. Xavier is really good in the back end. 873 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: But um, you know, in our system, safety is we 874 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: have to be interchangeable because we'll both be up there, 875 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 1: we'll both be back. But I think I've grown a 876 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 1: little more comfortable playing closer to the ball, you know, 877 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 1: and reacting will brother, Yeah, I feel I feel good there. 878 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 1: Try to keep you big lining off. I don't think 879 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: I'll be able to hold up taking you guys on 880 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 1: all time. So um yeah, I just try to, you know, 881 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 1: use my speed and stuff like that to my advantage 882 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: when I'm in the box. Now, Chris Rashad, is I've 883 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 1: got that right, sir? Okay, We're not gonna even try 884 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: to say what is he to the compared to other coaches? 885 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,280 Speaker 1: Know what has he meant for you guys up until 886 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 1: this point? He's been great so far. Man. He Uh, 887 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 1: obviously he brings a ton of knowledge. He's coached some 888 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 1: really good players, some really good defenses. So he brings 889 00:45:56,120 --> 00:46:01,439 Speaker 1: tons of knowledge, tons of energy, attitude, really everything that 890 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:06,720 Speaker 1: I think a young secondary and especially a young secondary especially, Um, 891 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 1: that's that's the type of guy we need. And uh, 892 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 1: we have all the pieces, man, we have the we 893 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 1: have the coaches, we have the we have the guys, 894 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 1: we have the personnel. So now it's up to us, 895 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 1: up to the barn and I, you know, leaders of 896 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: the room, to kind of we need to set the standard. 897 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 1: We need to keep the standard very high. And um, 898 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,359 Speaker 1: you know tension to detail all that, all those little 899 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,840 Speaker 1: things is what's gonna hopefully um take us to that 900 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: next step that we all want to be at. Now 901 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: before we got two questions that you are guinea pea, 902 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 1: it's not bad. We can either ask you who's the 903 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,680 Speaker 1: love of your life?

You do anything specially? 911 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:19,279 Speaker 1: So I do you know, if I have if I 912 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 1: have some time, I'll fire up the egg. I'll do 913 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,399 Speaker 1: you know, reverse your method? Much about that? And then 914 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 1: uh so you got an egg?

And 917 00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 1: if I have some time and if uh you know, 918 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 1: if it's only like me and my wife, I use 919 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 1: the egg. But if I'm like burgers or something, with 920 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 1: for all the guys. Uh, eggs a little takes too long, 921 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 1: so I'll just use the gas girl for that. But 922 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:44,880 Speaker 1: I think everything tastes better on the egg, and I 923 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 1: prefer to use egg.

Um, so I went u last offseason, 942 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 1: I went on a trip to Costa Rica. Yeah, Costa Rica. 943 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 1: That was really cool. It's man, it's beautiful. We stayed um, 944 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,880 Speaker 1: you know, we didn't we didn't do the resort route. 945 00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 1: We stayed at like this private little house is kind 946 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: of way back in the mountains, way up the you 947 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,279 Speaker 1: know trail. Yeah, we have the trail. So we're out 948 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,399 Speaker 1: there all alone. Um, a bunch of cool stuff to do, man, 949 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: beat I mean, if you're a beach guy, you got that. 950 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 1: You got to you got the jungle, you can do 951 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: that all these hikes. So that was a great time. Yeah. 952 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: So we need to know the time because it's three 953 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 1: twenty two. Okay, time you gotta get out of here. 954 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 1: I gotta be out there at three thirty five. Okay, 955 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,439 Speaker 1: so keep you seven now, since you and Byrne went 956 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,400 Speaker 1: racing on the track, who's the true faster gout in 957 00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:29,759 Speaker 1: the field? True faster go on the field? I mean, 958 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 1: ain't time about king about flat out straight speed. So 959 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 1: depends on what we're running. If we run anything, in 960 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: my opinion, if we run anything from one hundred yards 961 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,319 Speaker 1: or less, I think I got him. Okay, if we 962 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,359 Speaker 1: get a little further, like if we were on the track, 963 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 1: we were out four hundred, I think Byron might get me. 964 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 1: He's got more a little more endurance type spe r. 965 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 1: But uh, I mean we test, we test our twenties, 966 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 1: so I mean the number really man when we go 967 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 1: because I compete with Byron and just about every all 968 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,799 Speaker 1: the offseason we work out together and we're competing, and 969 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: we really we go back and forth most of the time. 970 00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:10,359 Speaker 1: So he'll win one, I win one. We're pretty pretty even. 971 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 1: Who's the fastest guy on the team right now, because 972 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 1: there's been on Austin is Yeah, he's got I mean 973 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:19,560 Speaker 1: his speed is like, it's just you guys shouldn't run 974 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: that fast. You guys shouldn't be able to run that fat, 975 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:23,640 Speaker 1: especially with pads on and the ball in their hands. 976 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 1: It's crazy. That's crazy. I hate you, man, that's a 977 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 1: guy give you just don't wake up. You know you 978 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,319 Speaker 1: either wake up and you had that UK. We can't 979 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 1: teach that, you can't. Yeah, So you talked about earlier, 980 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 1: back to a little bit back to football, about the 981 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 1: young guys on the team. You're like an old man 982 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,919 Speaker 1: on this team that like overnight, you went from you're 983 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: like the old guy, know, just in the dB room especially. 984 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,239 Speaker 1: It's crazy, but uh, I mean that's kind of how 985 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: the NFL works. Yeah. Um, you know you always go 986 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 1: through transition periods where you're either going from young to 987 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: more veteran players or tons of vets to really young team. 988 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:04,360 Speaker 1: And you know, obviously last year we drafted shoot with 989 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:07,799 Speaker 1: four rookies. Yeah, we draft the four rookie dB. So um, 990 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 1: you know, we lost a lot of guys who had 991 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,440 Speaker 1: played a lot of football and great leaders on the team. 992 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 1: But you know, whenever guys like that leave, it just 993 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 1: opens the door for you know, guys like myself, Byron 994 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:19,920 Speaker 1: and then a lot of these young guys to you know, 995 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 1: step out of their comer zone a little bit and um, 996 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 1: you know, take on that leadership role. Yeah, when you 997 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,280 Speaker 1: see a young guy like I'm sure you see every 998 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: training camp tons of guys like you just doing whatever 999 00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:31,400 Speaker 1: they can to get on the team and get their 1000 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 1: foot in the door and just work. Do you ever 1001 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 1: grab those guys and say, hey man, let me do 1002 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:37,960 Speaker 1: a little more of this, a little less than the 1003 00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:41,560 Speaker 1: absolutely man And I really appreciate those guys, because uh, 1004 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,719 Speaker 1: you know, something that I've tried to really focus on 1005 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,359 Speaker 1: is I can't forget how what got me to this point. 1006 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,439 Speaker 1: You know, I've I've gotten to this point through through 1007 00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,719 Speaker 1: hard work and um, you know, taking advantage opportunities. And 1008 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 1: I see guys out here that are in the same 1009 00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 1: shoes that I was in, uh you know, six years ago, 1010 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:00,480 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I'll pull those guys side and 1011 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:02,879 Speaker 1: you know, let him know. Hey. Man. You know, like 1012 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 1: especially when we get into the games, Like, man, you 1013 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:07,880 Speaker 1: can't always control whether the ball comes to you. You 1014 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 1: can't control like your stats necessarily, but you definitely can 1015 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 1: control how you look on film. That's a lot of it. Man. 1016 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,839 Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta do something to stand out, whether 1017 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:20,320 Speaker 1: it's you gotta be around the ball, whatever, whatever asset 1018 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: you have that makes you good football player, that's what 1019 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,360 Speaker 1: you need to put on display.

You know, I think that he might have 1027 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,960 Speaker 1: been going into his fourth year, I think, and uh, 1028 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 1: but he you know, he was also undrafted, did the 1029 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,959 Speaker 1: special teams his rookie year, and he really he really 1030 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 1: helped me out. And then you know, I would say 1031 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:55,479 Speaker 1: the number one guy who helped me out the most 1032 00:52:55,600 --> 00:53:00,400 Speaker 1: was coach Pisacha.
